00:00Scooble is the favorite minus 350 now he's at you got Corbin Burns and then everybody

00:10else is a little bit of a distance behind here with just under two months left in the

00:14season.

00:15I mean was Scooble's game the other night in Seattle not enough for more brownie points

00:21here for Cy Young votes.

00:23I mean that was impressive what he did against the Mariners right.

00:26And I bet that a plus one 18 and he hit he won the game.

00:30It was a huge performance on the road against a tough team in first place.

00:34I mean as far as I'm concerned he's still got the Cy Young.

00:40I agree with you.

00:41It is him right now the National League a little bit more up for debate.

00:45I know who me and you want to win the NL and he's pitching this weekend in Los Angeles

00:50that of course is Paul Skeens who's 2 to 1 sale the favorite on the board 115 Zach Wheeler

00:55involved as well.

00:56Little three man race for the top of the NL Cy Young board right now.

01:00Well I don't think sale pitched well the other night right.

01:02So that was that was a bad game for him.

01:05And then Skeens his last game he didn't pitch well but they're up for nothing when he left

01:14the game and they lost the game.

01:16The bullpen blew the game for him so it wasn't his fault he got a no decision.

01:19So I would guess frankly that if he if he goes and mows down the Dodgers like he mows

01:25down everybody else I want to see if last week you know his last start was if he was

01:32running out of gas because he really wasn't finding the strikes he wasn't getting the

01:36strikeouts he wasn't getting the outs easily and mowing through batters he struggled right

01:43and finding location and everything else.

01:45So I want to see if you know this performance against the Dodgers will be I think indicative

01:51of whether or not they're going to shut him down because Mike they're getting to the point

01:55where they're falling out of the wild card now every day they lose another half game.

02:01You know what I mean.

02:02Every other day it's a game.

02:04So I think if they get to the point where they're five or six out they're going to shut

02:07him down.

02:09That would be my fear as well especially when it comes to that award.

02:12They are now four and a half back of the final wild card spot as they head to L.A. this weekend

02:18they've lost four games in a row.

02:20The A.L. rookie of the year.

02:22This one has a lot of debate to it still.

02:25It is cold and cows are from the Orioles right now.

02:28Louie Heal is there.

02:29I tell you if Jackson holiday I know he's only going to play the last two months but

02:33if he's going to hit four home runs every week like he did for the Orioles he'll climb

02:37up that list pretty fast as well.

02:39Yeah.

02:40I mean I'm not going to I'm not going to argue with that certainly.

02:44I'm not that caught up in that rookie of the year in the L.A.

02:48We don't even need to show the N.L. because even if the Pirates did shut down schemes

02:52tomorrow and he didn't throw another pitch this year he would win the N.L. rookie of

02:56the year anyway.

02:57So it doesn't even matter.

02:58He's the N.L. rookie of the year.
